Overview
The most important part of the body, especially as we age, is our brain. So why aren’t we taking our brain health as seriously as our heart and achy joints, particularly when people are struggling to focus every day, and dementia and Alzheimer’s cases continue to rise? In The Stimulated Mind, Dr. Tommy Wood, a sports performance coach and neuroscientist specializing in lifelong brain health, dispels the myth that the brain is doomed to decline with age. Instead, by providing the right stimulus and building more “headroom"—the amount of mental function we have available to us—the brain can continue to adapt and improve.
Dr. Wood explains that a brain that improves with age is not the result of expensive pills, far-off discoveries, or strict lifestyle “optimizations,” but rather of actions within our control—diet, sleep, physical activity, social connection, and stress tolerance. Driven by how we use our brains on a daily basis, these modifiable factors come together in his groundbreaking “3-S” model that describes what a brain needs to thrive for a lifetime: Stimulation, Sleep, and Nutrient Supply.
In The Stimulated Mind, Dr. Wood presents actionable science drawn from his research and experience as a physician, neuroscientist, and performance coach in F1. Packed with insights and cutting-edge research, The Stimulated Mind offers a path toward true cognitive longevity, ensuring that our brains perform at their best no matter what the coming years throw at us.
